Summertime Seasonal Recipes

Serves 4 people generously as a side.

Ingredients:

• 2 large salad/English cucumbers, or 4 small ones
• 150g sour cream
• 4 tbsp neutral oil, such as vegetable or rapeseed
• 2-3 tbsp white wine vinegar
• A good pinch of sugar
• 2 tbsp finely chopped fresh dill (or more to taste, plus a few sprigs to garnish)

Directions:

Slice the cucumbers thinly and squeeze them with your hands over the sink to remove some of their liquid, then put them to one side. In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, 2 tbsp of the vinegar, the oil and sugar, and season with salt and pepper. Add more vinegar to taste - use a good splash - then add the chopped dill and stir to combine. Pour the dressing over the cucumber and mix gently.
